Eating a Fresh Feijoa

A New Zealand Treat

Nutrition

• Fresh feijoas are a good source of Vitamin C, are low in calories and are high in minerals and fiber.
• Fresh feijoas have a medium to high ORAC level so are healthy for all the family.
• All of the feijoa is edible except the outer skin. To enjoy a feijoa, simply cut in half and scoop out the centre with a spoon.

Usage Ideas

• Peel and use in place of, or in addition to other fruits in sorbets, sherbets and smoothies.
• Peel and use instead of apples or bananas in pies and baking.
• Roast feijoas with pork.
• Sprinkle lemon juice over cut feijoas to prevent browning.
